Answer this question… The League of the Iroquois refers to the well known historic confederacy of the Seneca, Cayuga, Onondaga, Oneida, and Mohawk in New York State. The League was characterized by a non-aggression pact between the five tribes, recognition of shared concerns, and structures for decision-making and leadership which brought together representatives from the five groups. To some extent, the structure and operation of the League of the Iroquois as a form of representative government is thought to have influenced the creation of the United States government system. Today, the Confederacy (also called the Six Nations Iroquois) continues to function and has grown from the original five tribes to include the Tuscarora tribe, which joined the League in the 1700s.
Since the League (also called the Iroquois Confederacy) was first described in print in the mid-eighteenth century by a Moravian missionary, much discussion has focused on its age and origins. While it is apparent that the League was in existence when Jesuits first visited the Canadian Huron in the 1630s, opinions differ about how long the League has been in existence. The point of these discussions has been to determine whether the League was formed as a result of contact with Europeans or the whether it is-as the Iroquois themselves claim-of pre-contact Native origin.
